Some more tidbits from the blogs I try to follow:
1. BCE is reminiscing on 20 years since he went to Iraq as a civilian contractor and how times changed. I will say this, he's now almost half the man he used to be. Thanks for stepping up to the plate and still sending good vibes to you and Gretchen and hope her battle with cancer ends in a resounding victory.
2. Not much from Electrospaces (formerly known as Top Level Communications) lately, there's an article (in Dutch) regarding how the Dutch government is proposing regulations on how their intelligence community is able to respond to cyber threats.
3. Over at Wirecutter's blog, I came across this interesting tidbit about how PornHub is going to block users in Texas in order to be compliant with a recently-passed state law that penalizes sites for not properly verifying the age of their visitors to prevent underaged folks from viewing the content. Depending on how they got their gateways configured, this can be easily circumvented with a VPN client just like how lots of folks are able to view IPTV content from other areas which may be blocked. Time will tell if this is gonna work out...
And on a personal note, my dad is once again back in the hospital for internal bleeding (his hemoglobin was at 4.5 :-o ) so hopefully they can find out where it's coming from and get it fixed.
Another personal and professional note, the live show that I regularly work as a backstage medic announced that they are closing and that the last day is May 11. I'll post more later about that along with pics when I get a chance.
